Stuck screen message, can't do anything to get past it...

My phone says "cannot access email account; please configure in settings" and will not let me choose "okay" or "settings" to fix it, it's stuck on that screen... i cant answer apple support's calls because of the stuck message. I'm trying to pull out the SIM card with a paper clip but it isn't popping out. I can't turn it off and on because it won't let me "slide to power off". What next?

The iPod is telling you to connect the iPod to your computer with iTunes. When connected, iTunes should open and tell you what to do. If it does not, you want to do is to restore the iPod from backup.

Macbook Pro keeps going to Mac OS X Utilities on start-up and can't do anything to get past it. I have tried everything.. even installing Mac OS X Lion again and after 6 hours of loading it said it couldn't load! Please help!?

..

This worked amazingly!! Thanks for the post awvik360!
I was able to access the internal hard drive and perform a permissions fix through disk utility and re-apply the OS X 10.5.6 combo update on a totally debilitated machine (Mac Pro early 08).
Some clarification though:
{{ I used a MacBook Pro instead of USB/ExternalHD to run a working copy of OS X. }}
~ Just start up the healthy OS X (laptop) in target disk mode (hold 't' key while it powers up)
~ Connect it to the impaired Mac with the highest speed cable available (fire800>fire400>USB)
~ Start up the impaired Mac while holding the alt/option key to select the boot drive.
~ Select the connected OS X (laptop hard disk) and start er up.
~ Run disk utility and you can now use the Fix Permissions option on the impaired Mac's internal hard drive.
~ Run the OS X Combo Update (or presumably other offending update/program) and make sure to change the destination to the internal disk of the impaired Mac
~ Shut down, unplug target disk, start up, and you should be good to go.
I was in some kind of uber-kernel panic and could not start up in safe mode OR from the installation disc, and this worked! Definitely a good emergency procedure to have in your back pocket.
Note: ...target disk pairing must be in this direction. I tried setting up the impaired Mac as target and connecting it to running laptop, and it let me run the install fine, but it didn't fix the problem...must be something with permissions that the impaired Mac needs to install to itself, even if the OS is running on another disk/machine.

Why if you open multiple applications, my phone became a white screen and can not do anything

why if you open multiple applications, my phone became a white screen and can not do anything ?

That is not normal. Very few apps are actually running in the background. What troubleshooting steps have you taken? Have you reset the phone by simultaneously pressing the Home and power buttons until the apple appears? Restored from back up? Restored as new?

Try using this article to help with your iPad not showing up in iTunes---
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 -This deals with the device not being recognized in iTunes for Windows
The following steps work well with iPod but i would try them for help with your iPad issue:
Try connecting your iPad to another USB port directly on the computer. Verify that you're connecting it to a high-powered USB 2.0 port on your computer to be sure iPad is getting power. If you're connecting to a Windows laptop computer through USB, connect the laptop to a power outlet before connecting your iPad. Also, see iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB to be sure that your USB ports are supplying enough power.
Avoid connecting to an external USB hub. If a hub must be used, make sure the hub is USB 2.0, and that it has its own power supply. Also, make sure the hub is connected to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer.
If the issue persists, try disconnecting other USB devices from the computer such as printers, cameras, scanners, external hard drives, and USB hubs to determine if there is a conflict in the USB chain.

Can't record anything --only get static

Hi,
Suddenly I can't record anything through the internal microphone. Both in Garageband and other apps, all I get is LOUD static. The recording bar doesn't show any input from the microphone. I have the preferences set for input: internal microphone. One weird thing, or maybe it's not weird, but worth mentioning: the input level bar in preferences under the sound input menu is flickering like mad.
As far as I know, I haven't changed any settings.
Can anyone assist?

Someone in another forum suggested this:
try dragging this file to the Desktop, reboot and set up sound again...
/Users/bd8/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
and it totally worked.
Thanks.

Playbook - can't select country or get past set up!

I'm so frustrated with this device! I want to use it but I can't get past the set up.
I get to the point where it has a drop screen to select Country but there is nothing there to pick from. As a result I can't agree to the blackberry agreement and can't do anything with the actual playbook.
I've had it for a week now. I tried with the tech boys at work but they couldn't figure it out. I'm not very tech savy but can normally figure this stuff out!!
PLEASE HELP!

Hi All,
I have also similar kind of issue - Country name not populating in drop down list.
Solution:
- Tried and tested solution
While connecting to Wi-Fi just check for the Authentication Type. I have tried with "WPA-Psk/WPA-Psk2" and it works for me. Please make sure that the Router and the BB Playbook both were using the same authentication type. Default value for routers are generally "WEP" so change it.
- Solution not tested but found in some forums.
I have heard one more solution. Shutdown your BB. Then install Desktop Manager in your Computer (PC). Connect you BB playbook with your Laptop. Once your Playbook is connected then only start it. Hopefully it will load and solve your problem. This does not even require Wi-Fi connection.
Regards

"Acrobat.exe- Bad Image" error message, Can't open anything with Acrobat

I have Acrobat Pro 9.0
OS Windows 7
Just started having this error problem show up within the past couple weeks.
Every time I try to open a document the browser freezes up for a few minutes (and I've tried on two different browsers), wont load the page, then I get this message:
Acrobat.exe - Bad Image
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\ Acrobat\BIB.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error.
I have had this program for several months and never had an issue.
Haven't changed anything I can think of...
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
I also tried just opening the program directly and got the same message.

My Acrobat 9 Pro freezes constantly. Seeing a pdf inside mutiple browser is not possible. Most of the time Acrobat 9 Pro and Acrobat Reader X starts within 5 min! As soon as I do anything, the top bar that shows "File", "Edit" etc. dissapears and averything freezes! Security software with possible firewalls I've uninstalled. Un- and re-installing Acrobat doesn't change anything. I'm using MS Windows XP, running Adobe CS4. Making any pdf's is no problem. I just can't see them. I can open a pdf inside Illustrator but that goes page by page. Any help?

Can't purchase anything, keep getting error message.

Since upgrading to iTunes 8.1, it won't allow me to purchase anything.
I get the message "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The requested resource was not found."
Am I the only one getting this message?

The #1 culprit of not getting into the iTS after an itunes upgrade is security software blocking the new itunes version, and not telling you.
Go into Norton, McAffe, XoneAlarm, Kaspersky or whatever it is you have for security software. Take itunes out of the list, save, and put itunes.exe and itunesHelper.exe back into the list. Save it again, then try ITS.

Gray screen and can't do anything.

I have a 2008 MacBook pro. A few days ago I did a forced shutdown and now all I get at startup is a gray screen. I am unable to do a safe boot, boot off the installation disk, single user mode or verbose mode. All attempts to do any of those things did not lead to any change to the gray screen. The only thing I can get my MacBook to do is zapping the pram, but that didn't make a difference. Any help would be more than greatly appreciated. I do have everything backed up to my time capsule so i have no problem if I need to reformat the harddrive. Thanks in advance for the help.

Boot from your SL DVD. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now reinstall OS X. This will not erase your hard drive. You will not lose your files.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

My iPod touch doesn't show the camera beside the unlock button and when I take a photo with my old camera screen, I can't see anything on my scree !

After upgrading my camera won't work??

wow sounds bad..
as for the camera button on the unlock screen, did you try doubletapping the home button??

When I try to download something, I get a black screen, and can't download ANYTHING.

I tried to download a program from the internet using Firefox, and it gets to the .exe screen, goes black, and doesn't actually start the download....anyone know why?

The Adobe Add On is causing the problem. I have Adobe Reader on my system, so this solution allows me to use this fix:
1. Open Firefox.
2. Go to TOOLS.
3. Go to ADD-ONS.
4. Select the PLUGINGS icon at the top.
5. Disable the ADOBE ACROBAT plugin.
6. Close ADDONS windown.
7. Select PDF link; Firefox should download and allow Adobe Reader to open for you (no longer opens in Firefox).

HT4061 How do I restore my iphone 4? Whilst updating to new software my computer crashed. This has left me with a phone that won't respond at all and itunes says 'restore your phone'. I can't press anything without getting a picture of a usb. not useful.

My computer crashed while updating my iphone 4.
My phone now will not respond other than a USB symbol to itunes.
When I plug into itunes it says 'reset your phone'.
I've tried holding the on/off and home button together, nothing.
On another note, it isn't possible to schedule into a shop in London until a week today. There is something seriously wrong with this picture.
Any help would be awesome.
Thanks

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

HT204053 I recently moved my song library to a new computer. I went to authorize my songs for the new computer, but about 1,000 will not authorize. They are authorized on an old account that was linked to my old work email. Can I do anything to get thes

So I have about 1000 songs that I can no longer access because they are linked to my old account. I cannot access that account, because the email I used for it was my old work e-mail. I got laid off in 2009, so I have no way to access that e-mail. Is there a way I can unlock these songs, or are they lost? They are still on my iTunes, and everytime I go to play them, it says I need to authorize them to play on this computer. What can I do? Thanks for any help!!!

You can update an older Apple ID that is no longer a working email address by using a new email address. Just make sure that it is not an email address that you are using in your second Apple ID.
Once you have rehabilitated the old Apple ID, authorize the Mac to use content from both Apple IDs.
